Making a single disk Gnu/Linux $HOME survive re-installation

[Bill Ricker]

Mike said my instructions on IRC were a bit incomplete; he was right.

I made a draft HOW-TO of the technique I used on a Feisty laptop and a
LTS Dapper server to set up so a full re-install (jump to LTS 8.10 or
emergency reinstall or ...) doesn't lose /var/local installs and
/home.
